80% said that if the United Nations concluded that genocide was indeed being committed, the United States should participate in U.N. intervention to stop the genocide.

Yup. And the Clinton whitehouse specifically forbade their spokespeople and cabinet members from using the word "genocide" to the press. True story. They knew that the word "genocide" was the key obligating them under UN resolutions to intervene, and he was too chicken shit a president to do it. I was livid. That fucking clown actually hid like a pussy behind semantics to avoid stopping the killing of almost a million people in Africa. Nice job, Billy-boy! Here, have a rib.
